FF Monday 17th

EricJ : 12/17/2018 7:15 am
It is coming down to the wire here in my playoff round this week. In a standard league, I am ahead by 30 points but my opponent has Kamara and the Saints defense. This is going to be close I think.

I really need the Panthers to come out and play well tonight.

What do you think my chances are?
I have Kamara and Cam tonight...  
BamaBlue : 12/17/2018 7:26 am : link
my opponent has Thomas and McCaffery. I think this will be a Saints landslide, because Cam has just about mailed it in... I don't know, we'll see.
all I know is this past weekend was a craptacular fantasy wise

So damn bizarre.

Have second most points in playoffs and still probably lose. Down 14.75 and he has Thomas I got brees.

162.75 to 148

Other semi that’s final is 108-76.

Of course this is the biggest payout league and only top two pay.

Side not in finals in my two other leagues.
I'm up 12

I got nobody left. My opponent has DJ Moore. Non PPR. I have the tie breaker. So my opponent needs 13 to win. Think I got it?
I got blown  
bc0312 : 12/17/2018 7:54 am : link
out with a lineup of Brady, Elliott, Fournette, JuJu, Thielen, Ebron to guys like Lamar Jackson, Pettis, Elijah McGuire, Mixon, Tenn Def.

Terrible week

with Brees against his Kamara. Just hope its one of those nights where Ingram gets the goal line work and Brees tosses 2-3. Very annoyed Ertz couldn't give me a bigger cushion. If he grabs one of those TD passes i'd feel a lot better right now.
I'm on life support  
pjcas18 : 12/17/2018 7:59 am : link
I have McCaffrey playing against Brees, I. Thomas, and DJ Moore and I have a small lead.

Need McCaffrey to put up 17 - 20 points and then I should have a shot.

My team was #1 in points, #1 in regular season and has Luck, Barkley, McCaffrey, Conner, Cook, Hilton, Evans, Kittle, Bears D. I got goose eggs from Rosas and a poor day from Luck. Below average days from almost everyone else and my opponents had the Williams' on Thursday night.

If I win it will be close to a Christmas miracle.

Dalvin Cook the only player on my team who showed up. Well Evans wasn't awful.
I got killed in my playoff game  
dep026 : 12/17/2018 8:11 am : link
Barkley and Fournette did nothing and his team went off. Nothing I could do.

In my other league, I am going for most points (30% of prize pool). I should have hopefully a 25-30 point lead over a handful of people. Would be a big check before Xmas.
More shocingly for me, I am in the finals in both leagues  
GiantBlue : 12/17/2018 8:24 am : link
going into next week. Shocking because I am not usually a great fantasy football player. However.....

In my one league, I am going to be playing the guy I beat by one point when Dalvin Cook caught the 17 yard garbage pass and 5 yard TD pass from Cousins at the end of the Bears game last week....so this is going to be something!

In the other league, Mahomes & Hopkins carried me through most of the year and again this week. Should be interesting.
Had the best team I've ever had  
JayBinQueens : 12/17/2018 8:31 am : link
and my year got derailed in one big swoop.

OBJ, Connor & Ware all out before game time.

Aaron Jones going down early and Saquan doing very little didn't help.

Adding insult to injury, I put in the Giants D as a late substitution figuring it would be sloppy with turnovers. I lose by 1.6 points and the D I subbed out had 3 more points than the Gmen.

/end rant
I'm up  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 12/17/2018 8:33 am : link
213-74.

He's got Kamara and McCaffrey left tonight. I'm still nervous. lol
My best team  
pjcas18 : 12/17/2018 8:39 am : link
(on paper) got smoked last week with Beckham missing the game and Jordan Reed putting up a goose egg, plus Brees and Thomas held in check.

Brees
M. Thomas
Beckham
Mixon
Chubb
Cook
Burton

I'm going to have some difficult keeper decisions. We can keep two. My interesting choices are:

Beckham: 2nd
M. Thomas: 3rd
D. Cook: 2nd
Mixon: 2nd
Chubb: 8th
Kerryon Johnson: 8th
Golladay: 11th

This past year I kept Beckham and Thomas.

I think this year I might just keep Dalvin Cook and Nick Chubb.

Or possibly M. Thomas and Chubb.

I agree, Ithink you definitely do Chubb. I'd be a little nervous of Cook's health, but if healthy he'd outperform a 2nd round pick imo.

When do you find out who everyone else is keeping?

August, LOL. Sucks losing.

I do a playoff fantasy football league with this same group, so that will keep me occupied.
Ertz  
OBJRoyal : 12/17/2018 8:51 am : link
I have locked up first place in my league. Yesterday I questioned whether I should not use Ertz and go with Samuel's. Good thing I didnt need all those extra points Samuel's got over Ertz

Can't see anyway you lose this game. Carolina has the 4th best run defense in the NFL. They have the 14th best Pass D, but they've given up 28 pass TDs this year. Only 3 teams have allowed more.
I'm in a tight one  
beatrixkiddo : 12/17/2018 9:29 am : link
frustrated that my bench players decided to go off (Mack, Golladay) while JuJu, Barkley and Miller all crushed me. Somehow I am still ahead 10 points. Thanks to Kaimi Fairbaim or whatever his name is. It's gonna all come down to Ingram vs McCaffery with my 10 point lead. Hope Ingram scores a couple TD's, and they shut down McCaffery tonight. I'd have this wrapped up if I only played one of Golladay or Mack, oh well.

Worst case scenario is happening right now, which blows. Now down 2 points, only hope is a Brees TD to anyone else which I can’t see happening if they hold the lead.
Wow !! unreal  
EricJ : 12/17/2018 11:21 pm : link
I won by 7 tenths of a point. My opponent had Kamara and the Saints defense. That last Saints possession I was just praying Kamara would not score.

Then being ahead by less than 1 point, if Cam got sacked or if there was a turnover, I would lose. That 4th down I was praying for an incompletion. It happened...

crazy..
Wait until Wednesday to celebrate

Under a point can always be altered by stat corrections.
Cannot believe  
SJGiant : 12/17/2018 11:27 pm : link
I beat the first place team and made the finals. Won by 23 points.
I'm in 4 leagues  
Go Terps : 12/18/2018 1:03 am : link
Made the finals in 3 of them despite drafting Leveon Bell.

I hope James Conner lives a long and happy life after caring my ass this year.
